Into the Woods - performance tracks without piano?
My company is interested in purchasing performance tracks for an upcoming production of Into the Woods, but we would very much like the flexibility for me as the MD to play live piano along with the track as well as run the tracks from Qlab. This way I can still conduct the show from the piano for the cast, but also fire cues in Qlab as we go, and provide an element of 'live' music along with the tracks, perhaps even dropping out the tracks and just doing solo piano at moments. Is there a possibility of purchasing the performance tracks without the piano part included in them?

How can I use one number from Rent in my show?
Hello,
I am planning to produce a play in Korea. We would like to include the musical number "La Vie Bohème" from the musical Rent in our production. We intend to translate the lyrics into Korean ourselves and perform it live. While we can request copyright permission for the sound recording through the Korea Music Copyright Association, we need the author’s consent for translating the lyrics and performing them ourselves.
Could you please advise us on how to obtain the necessary permissions for this?
Thank you.

When can we expect a release of the JR version?
I understand that multiple people have asked this question already, but since multiple pilot productions of the JR production have been shown, will the JR show be available for licensing soon?

Copyright Clearance
Hi, I am a professional actor recently graduated from theatre school. I would like to record a couple of songs (namely Finishing the Hat, and If I Din't Believe In You) and upload them as part of my voice reel on my online casting portfolio. Could I ask for your guidance as to how to have copyright clearance for these particular songs only, for this particular purpose?
